Sorry to disagree but having grown up there since '68, I say that it almost HAS gone south overnight. Look at the history of I94 and the effects of the race riots. 94 had virtually no exits to the previously thriving neighborhoods after the race that had the Civil Guard protecting the suburbs. Especially the rich ones like Grosse Pointe and Bloomfield Hills. They set up sandbags with submachine guns on top to "keep the peace" in the suburbs. All very well documented.
As for mayors, to me, that is Coleman Young. He had a stranglehold on the city that was second to none. Kwame was a second joke that lasted only a few years. Coleman and his cronies lasted some 20 years!!!
Ok, enough of this blah. Let's get back to Priest. Especially how Detroit LOVES them!

Detroit has a REALLY sad neighborhood right by a rescue place that is basically where the homeless set up. Thousands, literally.

I LOVED Bongwater who said that he loved hockey but we just can't get it here. Right on! Someone with half a brain who understands the situation. Imagine living in the street or, at best, a TENT!
Look, to cut a long story short, look at the way they ran the freeways. NO exits to the suburbs but right out to where the big car-makers made their homes. Read the Autobiography of Malcolm X! Talks all about it the overt racism and what it did to the inner city.
It IS getting better, though. I love the city and will defend it to the death. It IS Hockeytown, USA even if people can't afford tickets. Ignorant dolt, anyone who could think otherwise. Never been here.

I can't believe it all is a result of the auto industry as there's so much more there than just that...it's a truly sad situation that's been getting worse (if possible) rather than better...

Well, you really remind me of a high school buddy of mine I call "Poncho" (real name David Ponce) and you kind'a look like him too. He's a metalhead who likes to travel as well, but he lives here next to Chicago as I do...but still he goes. I don't think I ever heard the story of why you left Detroit, but as I've been there quite often over the years I can imagine why (though I could be wrong), but why Tennessee??

They moved to this area to stay temporaliy with a couple of "friends" and the friends turned them out quickly as they didn't get jobs off the bat. Had CASE not helped them they would have been homeless. But due to Zella stepping in and helping them they will have an apartment at the beginng of next week and My facility hired Moma and the Dad already has a job.

Actually, we did try to trick her workmates a few years ago. She was working at a bagel place while at uni, and me and Craig were visiting her. We came to the street where she worked and she said her workmates didn't know we were twins, so I wandered in to the store and was staring at the menu above the counter. The girl behind the counter was looking at me like WTF, you work here! LOL that was kinda funny.
